Here are 10 simple reasons why we support Senator Barack Obama in his bid for the presidency of the United States. There are many more. 1) Barack Obama is more electable in a general election than Hillary Clinton. 2) Barack Obama had the judgment, foresight and insight to vote against going to war in Iraq. We don’t need to be warring Iraq for another 100 years. 3) Barack Obama builds bridges and has been praised by Republicans and Democrats alike. He has a track record of working with Republicans-the only way to induce substitutive change in Washington. He also has extensive associations across class and race. 4) Barack Obama has gotten much of his campaign funding in inordinate amounts from the people and he's managed to raise record amounts of money, a mandate that the America people are speaking with their support. 5) Barack Obama has never been a candidate that resorts to fear tactics to achieve his goals. 6 Far from an elitist, Barack Obama worked hard for his tremendous success, overcoming insurmountable odds. He personifies the understated power of inspiration. One person referred to Barack Obama as a "hope monger." 7) Barack Obama energizes young people and engages our nation’s future in the political process. 8) Barack Obama is the only remaining candidate of the three that seems willing to communicate and change the way we have been dealing with other not-so-friendly governments. 9) Barack Obama seeks to protect Net Neutrality and has invested more energy into technology in practice and policy than other candidates. 10) Barack Obama intends to repeal the Bush tax cuts for the wealthiest 1 percent of Americans. |
